How to use the Image Cropper

  1. 01

    Drop in a PNG, JPG, WebP or GIF. It opens right here; nothing is uploaded.

  2. 02

  3. 03

    Choose a format and download. Set an output width to resize the crop at the same time.

About this tool

Crop images for every platform

Every platform wants a different shape: square posts, 4:5 portraits, 9:16 stories, 16:9 thumbnails, wide banners and 1.91:1 link previews. Cropping to the right ratio means your image isn't awkwardly cut off by the platform, and you choose what stays in frame.

This cropper lets you drag a frame over your image, lock it to a common aspect ratio or a social media preset, and fine-tune the exact position and size in pixels. Set an output width to resize at the same time, then download as PNG, JPG or WebP, all without uploading the image anywhere.

  • Exact pixel control

    Type the X, Y, width and height of the crop, or drag the frame and its handles.

  • Social media presets

    Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, LinkedIn, Facebook and Open Graph sizes.

  • Rotate and flip

    Rotate 90° either way and flip horizontally or vertically before cropping.

  • Crop and resize

    Set an output size to scale the crop as you export.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I crop an image to a specific size?

Pick a size preset, or type the width and height in the Output size fields. The crop frame locks to the matching ratio, and the result is resized to exactly those pixels.

What size is an Instagram post?

1080 × 1080 for square posts, 1080 × 1350 for portrait (4:5) and 1080 × 1920 for stories and reels. All three are available as presets.

Does cropping reduce image quality?

Cropping alone doesn't. Quality only changes if you scale the image up or save as JPG or WebP at a lower quality setting.

Can I crop on my phone?

Yes. The frame and handles work with touch, and larger handles are shown on touch screens.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. This tool runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your files and text never leave your device, so it's safe for private or confidential work.
